When he came out the young man told him that he would work as a farmer for him without any fare until he forgives him. Thoughtfully, the owner of the orchard said, "I will forgive you on one condition that you marry my daughter, but she is blind, deaf, and mute, and she is also unable to walk." He finished by saying, "if you agree, I will forgive you."
Then the young man said, "I accept to marry your daughter."
The time for his marriage came and the young man came sadly with faltering footsteps
I was serving the government as Private Secretary to the Additional Cheif Secretary during caretaker set up was installed before last election held on 25th July, 2018. Our Provincial Minister of caretaker government was to visit at our office. It was an introductory meeting convened on instruction of the then Minister at 04:00 pm. I was so busy in arranging this meeting that I could not remember what time it was. Suddenly I received a call from PS to Minister informing with reluctance that the M
How quiet he has turned! A river of thoughts, an ocean of words. Feels so worthless turning in to dumb stone, once was shining like stars. May be looking for the words of love in the faces, but found the barren lands. No cultivation, no shrubs, no flowers. The thirst of words was like a desert, found no quench, so drowned in his own tears. Gone alone in travel of life, and lost in the winds. O, wind any news of him? When gone in the hibernation, everyone forgot, hardly found in the bottom
Once upon a time, there was a pious young man. He was hungry and he could not find anything to eat. It is not possible for him to steal, or commit an illegal act to get food. While he was walking he saw an apple orchard. He ate an apple, and his hunger was over. Then he went home.
At home, he felt the blaming of himself. It was his guilty conscience that was nagging at him. He ate something which was not his. Then he started to look for the owner of that orchard. He found him and told him that he
There are so many types of personalities you might have met in your life and after passing a certain time you have formed your judgement which was later on proven wrong. Actually most of people, we meet on different occasion, successfully hide their flaws and behave differently. With this superficial judgement, we try to clinch our friendship.
The death penalty is the most severe penalty in Japan. It is mostly enforced for murderers that killed two or more people with murderous intent. Some people oppose it because they think it is against human rights. However, I wonder what they think about the human rights of people who were killed. No matter how many people a murderer kills, is it really necessary to think about the human rights of the murder? One problem of the death penalty is false charges. If the death penalty is enforced in t

Procrastination is killing us day by day. As an Accountant if we practice it day by day, we will lose our effectiveness very soon. Who knows in future we will fall in great trouble. But every day we are doing it & we are losing our future achievements.
How we are practicing procrastinating?
A lots of payment in hand, voucher in hand, reporting in hand but not taking early action and busy with social networking. Sometimes we are busy with unnecessary gossiping with colleagues. But we don’t kno
One day, I opened my eyes and was surprised, even shocked. How could everything be so dark, total black, the darkest black, without color, not even a single dot of light. I tried to sit on my bed. My heart was full of anxiety and confusion.... "I still can't believe this. Am I blind now?". My two hands were shivering and still holding the blanket. I was sure that that was not a dream.
"Nooo!! Is this a warning? Or is this a punishment? What is a big fault that I have ever done? This is really unc

It should be my happy day but turn out miserable.. still i am grateful to all the wishes that i received on that day..
A lot of people tell me that I'm so quiet. A lot of people also perceive me as lonely, negative or not so quite interesting to talk to.
It is also what I describe myself, silent. Silence is my friend. I like being quiet because that's the time I hear the true sounds of everything around me. The trees are boosting their magnificence. The flowers beside the road are conveying their ethereal beauty. The cool wind that gently hugging me.
Silence is my friend because to some deg

1. The more people you share your pleasure with, the more you feel pleasure. On the other hand, the more people you share your sadness with, the less you feel sadness.
2. Sea water evaporates and becomes vapor. It is cooled in the sky and becomes cloud. Cloud makes rain and it falls down on the ground and sea.
3. I am not sure whether it will become successful, but if the possibility of success is more than 50％(The percentage depends on the person), there is no reason why I don'
I never expected that you ended our friendship without saying a single word if you say just bye before ended the contact the pain of loss would be bearable for me but you wouldn't bother even to say that. The feeling of pain of loosing you can't be express in words if I try to express this feeling in words it's be like you have a good friend and he was dead and you haven't know where his or her dead body is nor you know his grave where you go and cry.....
I have to know your opinion regarding
Onee's writing challenge. I am not describing "Dream" I am mentioning a dream.
“OH! You have come again!”
No reply, there was silence but “Yes,” was hissed in my ears. She was looking very happy. Her supple fingers were caressing my forehead.
“How much you make me wait, and then you part quickly!” My voice was trembling; I was staring at her beautiful face as I wanted to engrave her in my memories, so that I would never forget her, even when she parts away. Her face was glowing like a moon
English has many expressions. We should know the meaning when natives us them.
I will use expressions with 'tongue' while telling a short story.
Here you go:
Sam is sitting on the bench next to the house door when Helen, his wife, comes home.
Helen: "Hello Sam, what are you doing here, outside of the house?"
Sam doesn't answer.
Helen: "Hey, did the cat get your tongue?"
Sam still doesn't react.
Helen: " Don't you understand me? I thought English is your mother tongue, or do I speak in tongues?"
Sam is st
Joseph's recent emailed newsletter about "Typing and Writing Symbols" was interesting. It reminded me of the days when I taught business communication and computing.
One of the things I taught students was how to create symbols on their computers that were not available on their keyboards. These symbols, as some of you will know, are part of the ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) which you can find here: https://theasciicode.com.ar/
The article tells you how to make the sym
